Oh... never knew that. Thanks for correcting me. ;)

BTW, I saw TP2 on HTC UK's site on the products page. This should be mean it will be in the UK's market real soon. Lucky British Peeps.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] h4xdaplanet:
Any ideas when pre-order will be made available, or is there some standard that T-Mobile sticks to (as in 3-months before release)?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sino8r:
If they do preorders for this one... if it's released in July (22nd allegedly), preorder should be in June. At least, that's how it was with the HTC Dream (aka T-Mobile G1)...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] galaxys:
Your are correct and I will only get one with both...I must have 3G!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Link278:
WOW ur right!! They wouldn't take the wing down without replacing it I am pretty sure, but I read a bit and some say it is confirmed for June 8, so.. which one is it? I am just happy that they did confirm it, and that they took down the wing because that means a replacement will come soon.

In that case, I can't wait, will the front facing camera stay then?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] josh_prayyforplagues:
from what ive heard, no. they say the US doesnt support it or something..? but thats just what ive heard. Im sure someone here could enlighten us on that..? anyone know why it wont work?

i have a feeling theyll throw a huge, fat *T***Mobile* logo right across the top where the camera should be.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Link278:
lol yeah but I heard that tmobile would be getting video voicemail in July too, so if they do there would be a use for the camera I guess.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] josh_prayyforplagues:
from what i know about visual voicemail, it doesnt have anything to do with Video. its more about being able to see who called you and whos leaving you a voicemail, and then highlighting them or whatever to play their message. and then from there you can select the save, delete or whatever function it is that you want. in order to prevent the whole, "to erase, press 7. to save, press 9." or whatever it is.

but it has nothing to do with a front facing camera. thats more for internet calling [skyping] or conference calls or whatever the hell you can do with it. take pictures of yourself and being able to see how you look and what not. taking Myspace photos for you Myspace Whores. ;]. i dont get you guys btw. im 16, and i dont do that shizz. what the hell meng? ehh, i digress.

anyway, it should be interesting to have Visual Voicemail on the TP2. that would be a nice added feature, especially with the subsidized TF3D on your in call screen, if you know what im talking about... thats just my thought though. :].

-josh.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ajbopp:
I dont' think it's visual voicemail that's the issue. It's video calling, like you might do on a PC with Skype and a webcam. To date no US carriers support that. Not being a T-Mobile user, I haven't heard if they plan to support it this year.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Link278:
oh I thought it was like video calling but it was just with voicemails...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] oltp:
According to a local in the Netherlands it will be available next week. Say around May 22nd :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Timossss:
Expansys UK will get the device only late June and Inkino UK middle of June (yesterday it was still beginning). Dificult to believe that it is possible to get the device earlier in the Netherland. Can i have a link of a good dealer in the NL who promose to deliver next week please?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] josh_prayyforplagues:
this might be a weird, and probably stupid question.. if you purchase the phone from another country, do you have to use their plan? Or would the deal transfer over to T-Mobile US? reason i ask, I'm just about due, if not orverdue, for an upgrade. And if i can upgrade my plan, i could buy the TP2 at a reduced cost, AND before its available to the US.. everyone following me? lol. it doesnt sound like it could be done, but i thought i would just ask...

thanks.

-josh.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Link278:
If you unlock it and it is a GSM version then it would work on tmoible but without 3G, but you would still have to pay the people you bought it from for the actual phone, but im not an expert so you should double check before actually buying it cause I am not responsable for u buying hte phone and it not working if I am wrong.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sgsdebruijn:
huh 1 month later dude, it was the end of May, i am still waiting but they delivered the Diamond 2 1.5 week earlier.

Verwachte leverdatum: 26-06-2009
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mx4life:

http://www.bol.com/nl/p/telefonie/htc-touch-pro2-eng/9005000006565717/index.html and 14 June for the ENG(WWE?) Version
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] dgh:
called mediamarkt and belcompany in the netherlands

Belcompany .... end of May

Mediamarkt ..... 5th of June

hope this is true and that we are getting close :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cocoaju:
It says in Expansys.com that it will be available normally less than 5 days.

This means it should be launching soon. They did it with the Diamond 2, a couple of weeks before launch! I hope I am right! ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] billu:
The link now says expected date is 12th of june.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cocoaju:
My GOD! They keep changing it! It once said 5 June a week ago, today when I checked, it said around 5 days, now its even later, 12 June! Ridiculous!

But I am still gonna wait! :D

Change on the release date

the guys from tmo news have solid proves that the HTC touch pro 2 will be launch on august 12 for tmobile not on july like it was reported
[XPERIA X1 General] copiae:
Hi,

I've been using Jack V3.x medium for the past few weeks. The ROM has been brilliant apart from a few issues with TF3D lag (although i gather that this is a universal TF3D problem) and overall i am quite happy with it.

Jack V3.x is not based on WM6.5 however, unlike some other ROM's that have been popping up in the ROM development forum. From what i've been reading WM6.5 is only an incremental upgrade to 6.1 and so i am left wondering: Is it worthwhile to upgrade to WM6.5 now, bugs and all, or to wait for a few months before upgrading so all the bugs get wrinkled out? Also, what WM6.5 ROM would people recommend upgrading to?

Thanks in advance!

P.S. The factors that would make me want to upgrade are things like improved functionality, faster speed, clearer UI, etc.
[XPERIA X1 General] fuzzmo:
Well I am using gtrabs ROM and so far I am really liking it. It is pretty fast, no bugs or crashes, and the interface is clean. I have kinda got a bit tired of TouchFlo3D so I wanted something different. I would say give it a go....
[XPERIA X1 General] plonkersaurus:
itje's 6.5 RC1 is what I'm on, if you disable threaded messaging it works probably better than official 6.1 roms did for me. Its faster, scrolling is much much better, looks nicer, and has titanium which i really get on with.
[XPERIA X1 General] strboy:
yes .
[XPERIA X1 General] gundamboy:
definitely worth it.

Interface upgrades, ram usage isn't up that much, it's a lot smoother.

using gtrab's rom right now, it's so quick when browsing windows in file explorer.

battery life has somewhat improved, strangely enough.
[XPERIA X1 General] DavidMc0:
I have only tried one 6.5 rom, and that is Valkyrie v1, which has TF3D in case I didn't like the WM 6.5 interface. It all functions properly, so I'd recommend trying it (or other 6.5 roms) and see how it works for you.

However I'm seriously considering going back to WM6.1. While this 6.5 rom works well and I'm glad Chefs are experimenting with 6.5 (doing a great job!), it just seems slower and less refined. I'll give it a bit more of a go before giving up though!

Regarding the WM6.5 interface, I personally thing TF3D is far better - why have such a tiny area for plug ins? Daft I reckon!

Give it a go and see what you think!
[XPERIA X1 General] gtrab:
You should test my SEX1/W4X ROM

I'll eat my shorts on YouTube if you don't say "oh" :eek: when oppening /windows/ in the file explorer :D

TITANIUM is a tOUCH! Flo killer: Faster, cleaner and smoother

TITANIUM is a Ferrari, tOUCH! Flo is a school bus: big, heavy and slooooow...

Just my 2 cents, MHO of course

;)
[XPERIA X1 General] cocoaju:
Definately a YES. All I need to do now is to choose one. LOL. I am new to this as well, so a bit worried in losing my waranty if anything happens.
[XPERIA X1 General] DavidMc0:
I may give it a go, and if it crashes trying to load /windows/ I'll be looking forward to the youtube clip ;D

Touch Flo slow? Really? Seems very quick to me, at least on the latest roms. It also seems to have a much more efficient layout.

I've just put Touch-it v7.1+ (WM6.1) back on, and it's so much smoother & together than the 6.5 rom I tried!

But yes, I may give your rom a go gtrab, and see how it is. I'm sure 6.5 will have advantages, just not sure it's there yet.

What do you do in WM 6.5 for listening to music? S2P is no good (well, is good until you get a call and it mucks everything up!), WMP is no good for finger navigation.

Even if smooth though, I'm pretty sure the new TouchFlo is better than Titanium, but I will see if I can be persuaded ;)
[XPERIA X1 General] fuzzmo:
Comparisons are always subjective. I quite like the clean interface of Titanium and got bored of TouchFlo. I may get bored of Titanium and go to SPB Mobile Shell etc.

One thing you need to remember is that WinMo 6.5 (and the R3A ROM) are still in Beta so some may get bugs and some may not. FTR I am using gtrabs ROM and so far it is very good and I think it will be a keeper for me until the proper version comes out (i.e. no beta).

Apart from having to reload your programs there is no harm in giving it a try - if you don't like it you can go back to a 6.1....
[XPERIA X1 General] williyung:
Yes, I think you must try Gtrab's WM6.5 ROM...It plays with speed. I've tested another 4 WM6.5 ROMs, and finally i go back to Gtrab's one and said Wow! for his Rom.
[XPERIA X1 General] gtrab:
I use Sony's MXP panel for media

I don't like Touch Flo, I prefer the Panels and Titanium (both together)

Many "Touch Flo" cookers these a days, and just a couple of XPERIAncers as me

This is a matter of choices and tastes, very subjective, yes I agree with all of you

Only

one thing is for real

:

The only way to find WHICH ROM and WHAT softwere better suits your own needs is by trying...

Which car is better ?? Audi or Mercedes ??

You have to drive them both and make your personal pick

Same principle applies to ROMs

My oppinions:

1- If your personal preference is Touch-Flo, why upgrading to WM6.5 ???

You can get GREAT ouch Flo ROMs from itje, jack or smaberg

2- if you REALLY prefer Touch Flo, why buying a SONY XPERIA in the first place ??? :rolleyes: :p The phone itself was not designed for Touch Flo !!!

:confused:
[XPERIA X1 General] copiae:
Thanks for all of your replies.. i'll put on WM6.5 to test out now. I like your confidence gtrab, so i'll be puting on your barebone version first :).

Oh, and regarding your questions in your last post: I am a fan of TF3D only because it adds a lot of usability that the default WinMo 6.1 lacks on its own. It also looks good and gives me all the information i need in an easy-to-access manner. If there was an alternative that maybe wasn't as good looking but had functionality and more importantly was fast and hopefully free then i'd be happy to move over to it (The PointUI panel was brilliant, but the lack of a large-font clock was a downer).

And as for why i bought an Xperia.. Well, mainly because i accidentally dunked my last phone in a cup of scalding hot tea :eek:. When looking around for new phones i liked what i saw in the Xperia reviews and so here i am. The phone itself is brilliant, apart from its default OS and panels. In theory they sounded great but in practice i didnt like the associated lag (on vanilla OS, at least) with it when switching from one panel to another. Still, it may be time to try them out again.

Ok, i'm off to flash a rom or two :).
[XPERIA X1 General] jackleung:
Because w/ X1, we have a choice to pick panel and/or TF3D. Not the other way around since no others devices are able to run Panel stable. :p

OKOK, I admitted I would have a hard time to pick X1 or HD if HD fully support USA's 3G. ;p
[XPERIA X1 General] DavidMc0:
In the end, yes, you need to use what suits you.

1) Why upgrade to 6.5? Well, how would I know I preferred TF3D if I didn't try 6.5? And why not try something new? - it could be better, and I will keep trying new things, as the current TF3D will not be the best forever!

2) The Xperia runs TF3D perfectly well, and I knew this, so this did not put me off buying the Xperia. Also, hardware comes into it - the Xperia was my only real option, as nothing else (that's worth having) has WVGA screen and hardware keyboard.

While a lot of this is subjective, not all of it is. For example, the amount of useful space for an applet on TF3D compared to Titanium:

You can do much more with this space, e.g. calendar & music player.

If I had more time I'm sure I could show some of the objective advantages to TF3D, but I don't, he he! But I guess, even if one is actually better and more efficient, if you prefer the other one, then that's the one for you to use :)

And regarding the media panel, when I tried it, it seemed great, but when I changed back to default panel the music stopped - is this normal? I'd use it if I was able to run the music in the background while browsing the web & doing texts!

It's great we get such a choice on these phones, thanks to XDA dev!

I have been having problems changing my number on my phone. I am using DCD 3.3.4 and radio 3.42.50. I can not access the page where i can change my number on the phone. I have the number changed on the bell network. When ever i put the code in, ##564848#, the phone starts dialing. If i do ##564848 then it tried to load EPST and closes. I talked to bell IT and they gave me a link to get the factory bell settings rom.

http://www.pcdphones.com/phone_downloads.aspx?bid=76&cid=16&mid=298&carrier=Bell Mobility

I am using the new boot loader 2.47no2chem i believe. If i try to load the rom, will i run into problems? Does anyone know of a better way to change my number? Thanks for any help in advance.

Cheers,

Andrew
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] mattsm:
I was just talking about something similar over at geeks.

#codes do not work with some of the dialers.

Do not know if it will work, but find a dialer cab to install and retry. Worth a shot anyway.

I know this one has worked for me. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=429179
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] AMC_CAN:
Thanks for the link, ill try it out. They say to uninstall the previous cab how do you do that?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] AMC_CAN:
I also been reading around that i need to install a cdma dialer cab, and this might be the problem why i cant get into the EPST page. If anyone has any more ideas let me know.

I installed another dialer cab with no luck. I installed the cab from the link mattsm posted above with no luck. It tries to load the page and then closes. I was thinking, I installed a DCD 3.3.4 rom but was that rom intended for GSM phones or cdma? I think the settings page was removed from the rom. If anyone has any ideas please let me know. I want to install the rom from bell to get factory settings but i have a new boot loader, so will this be a problem? Thanks in advance

Cheers
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] mattsm:
The only other thing I think you could try is qpst.

It lets you edit the epst settings from your pc.

you will need the qpst program, htc drivers

google the qpst and I will post some drivers you need in this post with an edit.

after you get the drivers intalled and qpst on your pc, You will enter ##3424# on you phone and hook up your usb to phone and it will install the drivers. Let me find the link to qpst help and I will post it as well. I am sorry right now I am busy but will post these before I leave.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] RyanMogul:
You can try my Diagnostic Shortcut CAB located in my HTC unlock directory, you dont even have to soft reset the shortcuts show up in programs/diagnostic folder.

There is also HTC windows drivers, Active sync 4.5, QPST 2.7 build 3.01 works perfect with TITAN, and many other tools. Plus instructions.

http://www.4shared.com/dir/13899878/aef6ea49/HTC_to_Windows_Drivers__Unlock_Tools.html

Start from ground up EPST change your number, MIN, anything you have to change to switch phone numbers. Then double check using PST and correct any settings. Let me know if you still have problems accessing PST with codes or shortcut. I will make you a Bell CAB that will fix your programming codes.

Enjoy!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] AMC_CAN:
Thanks alot for the help. I have to head to class right now but i will be back later today and try it out. When you say drivers, which drivers are you referring too? the drivers for my phone on vista? If you post some steps, i would greatly appreciate it. Thanks again.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] mattsm:
thanks, He has the link. Got to go will check back later. Good Luck.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] RyanMogul:
Yes the HTC windows drivers get installed on your PC. Then QPST, then put the phone in Diag Mode, then plug it in with active sync usb connections disabled, then access Service Programming using QPST. The instructions (SPCunlockinstructions.txt) are on my share site, they will at least get you into Service Programming the rest is up to you.

Another thing I found is to disable driver signing in Vista press F8 while booting up and disable driver signing. Also if you do a search on XDA for HTC vista drivers you will find a thread with some drivers and information you can try.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] AMC_CAN:
Thanks alot RyanMogul6800. I have downloaded most of the files that you have mentioned. I can't try them out until monday, but ill give them a shot for sure. Thanks again. The Bell cab you mentioned, is that the problem? I can't seem to understand why in the dialer it tries to load the page and then closes as if it was missing. Let me know what you think.

Cheers,

Andrew
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] AMC_CAN:
Thanks alot Ryan. I used the program and I changed my number with the qpst. It works now!!!

i created a Splashscreen for my diamond so i thought id share it with you guys :)

All credit goes to Lucchini for creating the original image, i just edited it slightly and made it in to a flashable file!!

Note: This is a replacement for the initial splahscreen when you switch on your handset not the HtC animation or the windows loading screen, Just flash the .nbh file with the custom ruu in the zip :)

Hi long time reader and not many posts.

Im a bit unsure of this i clicked on the RUU installer and all I get is a grey screen with a percent bar on it that doesnt move. Is this normal and how do I stop it? I realise that Im a bit green on this as I thought it would be as easy as installing a CAB file.

Thanks

I installed the cab and i have the photo ok. Is it possible to have the above gif and not just a stable photo? Thanks ,
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] whiskeybro:
yes its possible .

the best way is rename the gif to animated.gif and put it in your windows folder with total commander, when it ask you to overwrite ...do it and it should work now.

when total commander not ask to overwrite go to step 2 and install the tweak program advanced configuration, start it go to HTC animation/Startup Gif file rename to \Windows\animated.gif.

done.
